Janów Podlaski National Stud, Horse stud farm in Wygoda, Poland
The stud sits among open fields with paddocks, stable buildings and riding halls laid out along functional lines. The arrangement of buildings follows a straightforward plan with pathways running between the different areas for breeding and training.
The operation was founded in 1817 at the initiative of Alexander I to stabilize the horse population after years of war. During the 19th century the first brick buildings went up, forming the basic structure that remains today.
The name comes from the settlement of Janów, shaped by horse breeding and now known as a synonym for Polish Arabian stock. Visitors can watch handlers work daily with the animals and pass on traditional methods.
Guided tours offer a look at the stables and outdoor grounds, with most pathways paved and easy to walk. Outside the winter months horses are often visible in the paddocks.
A clock tower in a Gothic revival style rises above the red brick stables built in the mid-19th century. This architecture combines industrial function with historical forms and still defines the appearance of the site today.
